Love it ! ! !

AND I thought they got a good find with Coach last season. This guy is stirring up more trouble than ever. LOL They have a real colorful cast this season. I think they stacked a real interesting deck.

I'm shocked at how much email I'm getting and how many comments on the site. I'm at 452 comments on the site and this is just the second episode.

Almost all of the email and comments are "I'm Never Watching This Show Again!", but then if you look at the ratings, they actually gained audience last night. More people watched last night than watched the opening episode!

I put up a poll, asking what people thought about Russell and most people "thought he would make it interesting". More people wanted to torture Russell than had no opinion at all. Amazing.

He's also number 6 on the "who do you like" poll. Wow. Casting did it's job this season.

The Romans enjoyed blood sports. People took picnic baskets to the first battle of the civil war. It's human nature. As the producers, you/they have to decide whether you want a game or a documentery of human depravity. As it stands now you are quickly approuching the line where you have left behind one and embraced the other. I came into the show around the fifth season and enjoyed it because it had an interesting game model populated with colorful characters. But the show is slowly drifting into the darker side of human nature with recent cast members. Just because people slow down to look at a car crash doesn't make it ok to stage them at rush hour. Sometimes you just have to draw the line.....

Hi all...new here.
Just wanted to add my .02 cents.
I really liked last season from the very first episode. This one is having to kind of grow on me.
Yes Russell H. makes me want to throw something at my TV screen. But he's got ppl talking. I couldn't stand Couch last season. And my detest grew for him with each episode. Making it all the more sweeter to see when he got voted out & how he got voted out. I'm hoping the same with ER. I want to see him stay around long enough to really get it good!

[Brian Southworth]

I can't wait to see his demise either!!!

[B~Boop]

There's so many people talking about hating ER. But if everyone was nice & good we'd never want to see them voted out. The worse they are & longer they stay the more fun it makes it to see them GO!!!!! I think it'll be this way with ER & Ben. They'll never win it. But by them being there it will take attention off a more deserving player & hopefully push someone better more towards the prize. I love seeing the "Playa" get played.

Russell rules...im a huge fan of this show... and this guy is the complete package... sure he emptied a few canteens and tossed another castaway's socks in the fire... so what...its not like he is physically harming anyone... the only thing i didn't care for was his story of losing his dog in katrina... but i'll get over it...i like his strategy and he brings some drama into this season...
ben on the other hand...needs to be bitch slapped to the ground!

Totally agree Remember folks, the theme of the show is Outwit, Outplay and Outlast .. At the end of episode 2, Russell appears to be doing just that.

Ben's a complete weenie and wouldn't even be on the radar right now if he would have handled himself differently when defending against Yasmins onslaught. Tackling a girl when your a full grown guy is pretty unnecessary as well. He won't be around much longer
